A Magic Steeped in Poison

The details about the magic system and cultural rituals felt so immersive. I wonder if the author drew from real-world traditions or created everything from scratch.

Her actions sometimes felt morally complex, which made her more real but also left me unsure if I was supposed to sympathize with her fully.

The incorporation of mythological themes added layers of meaning, but I’m curious whether the author had specific myths in mind or crafted new ones to fit the narrative.
